Subject: Since Miss America is becoming blah and girls are slowly running away from it, what systems should we be paying attention to? For pageant competitors and pageant fans?

Subject Author Date Not to be disrespectful or rude, but the only place pageants are doing well is in Asia. Miss Universe is now headquartered there. Miss Grand is the up-and-coming system and was probably best production-wise. Miss Supranational. Miss Earth, Miss Cosmo, and Miss Charm are smaller, but ALL have been more visible than Miss America. Sad to say, but pageants are going the way of the dinosaur in the US. (NT) No name (h253.35.17.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net/98.17.35.253) 15:14:53 12/21/24 Sat That is total B.S. Pageants in South and Central America are at it's peak. (NT) No name (c-98-41-68-45.hsd1.ca.comcast.net/98.41.68.45) 16:38:43 12/21/24 Sat Which pageant is headquartered there? (NT) -- No name, 23:03:47 12/21/24 Sat (h71.137.21.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net/98.21.137.71) Miss Volunteer America No name (syn-035-150-243-209.res.spectrum.com/35.150.243.209) 20:28:58 12/21/24 Sat Good grief. Stop it with this one. It is three steps down from Miss America and that is saying a lot. Nothing fresh or exciting. Just the MAO’s old playbook. (NT) -- No name, 06:18:33 12/22/24 Sun (h71.137.21.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net/98.21.137.71) Agree to disagree- I’ve enjoyed their show the past few years and the women competing seem to really like their experiences with the system. That said, at least athletic wear gives some energy back to Miss America. Miss Cosmo and Miss Grand have been some of my favorites to watch this year. (NT) -- No name, 08:41:19 12/22/24 Sun (syn-104-136-211-061.res.spectrum.com/104.136.211.61) I attended Volunteer nationals and it was a cringe fest! Allison and her family variety show. Most contestants at Volunteer go after they can’t win their MAO title. (NT) -- No name, 09:14:49 12/22/24 Sun (39.sub-174-247-0.myvzw.com/174.247.0.39) right.... paid the money for travel, lodging, f&b, & tickets and didn't like Volunteer, lol. (NT) -- No name, 16:36:24 12/22/24 Sun (173.205.85.59.static.quadranet.com/173.205.85.59) There is something for everyone! I don’t understand why people need to tear down Miss Volunteer America. And I would say it’s not girls who can’t win their state, actually there are lots of crossovers that have been state winners. Stop being so nasty. -- None, 16:51:55 12/22/24 Sun (NoHost/172.58.241.99) Agreed. Volunteer pays their bills. The only people that think MAO is still the pageant above the rest are the people who are living in the past. The program isn’t what it used to be, and sadly won’t likely be again. Time to start putting stock in pageants that actually have the funds to keep their doors open and lights on! (NT) -- No name, 01:01:40 12/23/24 Mon (syn-024-163-059-002.res.spectrum.com/24.163.59.2)
